Solo King Blade VS Swarm Disaster 5

[@artumbo]

Who do you think can solo Swarm 5 and with what path? Check out my twitch, full VODs are also there! www.twitch.tv/artumbo :)

[@HHQ74]

I think our queen Kafka could solo with Nihility path. Thoughts? 🤔💭

[@artumbo]

@@HHQ74that sounds doable! Nihility is super broken so I’ll definitely give it a shot :)

[@nataniellouie]

I saw a clara with a destruction path, she's unkillable

[@marcoleung311-v7j]

​@@nataniellouieyeah that's his video lmao

[@Celestial-yq6hz]

Physical Trailblazer gets some Def and a bit of healing innately, so I’m kinda curious if it could work 😅

[@xenoemblem7]

Isn't it ironic that what Blade want the most is to die, and then Hoyoverse decided to make Him one of the hardest character to kill 😅

[@artumbo]

LOOL he tries so hard but he’s literally indestructible

[@joshuwottdelta]

​@@artumboin... DESTRUCTable. MWAHAHAHAHAHA

[@QuickMoba]

Well, if he isn't hard to kill, he wouldn't want to die anymore, he would already be dead.

[@rolf1819]

that's the point tho...

[@ShadowS.R.]

The biggest irony would have been for him to get a Revive in his kit.

[@silverhawkscape2677]

Footage of blade trying to kill himself to end his Mara Suffering and failing hard.

[@artumbo]

Poor guy went to the hardest content hoping it could finally end him

[@hannatheoneandonly]

‘Terrifying self-healing ability’ YES BLADE IT IS TERRIFYING

[@artumbo]

LOOOL looks like he unfortunately managed to survive

[@Celestial-yq6hz]

Gets so close to death only to heal back up 😆

"What if I..." "Fuck I did it again"

[@bootstrap925]

honestly blade is such an insane unit. he might not be imbibitor levels of damage but his versatility is wild, definitely gonna get him when he eventually reruns now that we got lynx. great swarm 5 solo as always, leveling and swapping relics mid run is something ive never thought of before lol

[@artumbo]

Blade has honestly been the star of my characters so far and I have everyone else too - definitely go for him when he reruns! Thank you very much! Yeah the relic swapping was super memey but looks like it paid off :)

[@Accountthatexists]

Blade is honestly so good and not just " replacable" like the other dps chars, mainly just cause he is not just the dmg dealer, he honestly can be a flex slot for almost any team, cause his survivability is just so good, because alot or people might say he's just "bad and not as good as kafka, IL and jinglui" but those are genshin players that have never played a turn based game Before and don't understand what a "Tank" is, and why those types of units are good

[@peace_ful_eyes]

yep, his my favourite unit in the game and wanted him from day one, yh hid not the highest damaging but he does enough, and with luocha he beats every content for me.

[@deyyy-]

He never leave my party even once since i got him ❤

[@cmmiestcat]

Blade is basically a tank that deals huge damage.

[@kurobot100]

Blade is one the most satisfying units in the game

[@artumbo]

I LOVE his follow up attack and sound

[@jolteonjohn]

Blade running for his life to hit those barrels was pretty funny

[@artumbo]

we were a FRACTION of a second from missing it too

[@gurutejasprcss2389]

This is canon, Blade tries to die but just cannot and instead suffers

[@artumbo]

The roach himself

[@qubanv2]

My brother, your transitions from the intro's sneak peek to the start of the video have been flawless. Much respect 😊

[@artumbo]

Thank you!! Really appreciate it :)

[@HallowBro1]

This is basically the definition of the protagonist having plot armor *Tanks a nuke and still survived by plot armor*

[@artumbo]

he's literally the unkillable roach

[@chinmayabarik8965]

Abundance gets better as you progress through the path. The only issue with abundance is that my characters struggle to fight the initial boss fights as it doesn't provide any kind of buff initially. You need to get other blessings

[@mimi2114-l6i]

Yaoshi 4 lyfe lol

[@artumbo]

yeah it takes a lot of time to ramp up and the beginning is definitely the hardest part! once you can get past the domain 2 boss it becomes a lot easier (and then of course the final boss is tricky)

[@DanielDaAbadSukarno]

This is why BLADE IS THE GOAT! He is Tank and DPS on one body!

[@artumbo]

he just does it all!

[@buttponcho101]

Lol you're so on the grind man, from stream to video in less than 5 hours. Big props

[@artumbo]

Taking advantage of the long weekend haha Always happy to see you on stream!

[@hadiibrahim3880]

Definitely gonna pull his signature next rerun , 9k hp with boots , orbs and rope is perfect for solo runs since I use salsoto on him

[@artumbo]

That’s a good plan! Best of luck :)

When the bugs ult but didn't even break the shield, so hilarious

[@artumbo]

Blade didn’t even flinch 😂

[@MaskedShado]

what a great season this was to watch the last week and the grand finale of the solo king blade arc will always be a run to remember. Getting the final hidden gold hunt pathstrider and in turn completing everything in swarm disaster and finally locating the barrels behind the tent. I look forward to the next season the Landau's Redemption arc. Also happy Thanksgiving weekend to my fellow Canadians :)

[@artumbo]

glad you were there for it, what a moment that was landau's redemption arc will come! happy thanksgiving :)

[@shotgunshogun4707]

Petition to make motion blur a settings in the base game...so many abilities look extra clean with it imo.

[@artumbo]

agreed, i'll sign right now it's just way too sick

[@crimsonraiderxv3422]

Motion blur should be added as a togglable feature. It looks so clean in this game

[@artumbo]

hopefully we can get more graphics options in the future cause it looks SO good

[@tiggert4002]

I'm finally starting to understand the game. The star thing is now one i always keep an eye for. And the one that revives after a killing blow

[@artumbo]

Those are definitely life savers! Good luck on your runs :)

[@VictorHugo-uc6bk]

Very cool how blade solo is easy, ya just need to get abundance and fighting spirits, some elation helps a lot too

[@artumbo]

yep the key will be stacking abundance and getting those two big fighting spirit ones (stack up to 35, which then unlocks damage reduction per stack - absolutely MASSIVE)

[@VictorHugo-uc6bk]

@@artumbo FR FR, but since I'm yet building my blade and dnt rlly care about soloing, I'm duoing Blade and Clara with the same idea, try it out man, btw if this comment get pinned is a gr8 thing
